1. Background. For the past 100 years, the key element in the processing of gold ore has been the cyanidation process.Over the years, steady improvements have occurred in equipment design; milling has evolved from stamp mills, through tube mills and ball mills to the large semiautogenous grinding (SAG) and fully autogenous grinding …

Carbon loaded with gold is then withdrawn from the circuit and processed in an acid column. This removes impurities from the carbon, before the material is transferred to the elution column where it is soaked in a heated caustic cyanide solution. Hot water is then pumped through the column to remove the gold as a high-grade eluate solution.

Gravity Gold Recovery in Grinding Circuit. For efficient operation of the cyanide circuit, it is necessary to remove the coarse gold from the grinding circuit as soon as it is released, otherwise this gold will become lodged behind the liners of the ball mill and not be recovered until the ball mill is relined.

As the slurry passes through the circuit, gold continuously leaches in the cyanide solution. Sufficient residence time is provided in each tank to facilitate the leaching. Carbon particles are suspended in the tanks to simultaneously adsorb gold from cyanide solution. Screens are installed in each tank to prevent carbon transfer along with the ore.

The placement of the gravity circuit can either be on cyclone feed or here on cyclone underflow – I'd say this has been the traditional location in the underflow.

In this case, cyclone underflow is fed to a ed area in the underflow tub, and gravity-circuit feed taken from this area. Slurry excess to the capacity of the gravity circuit overflows back to ball-mill feed. For those circuits treating ball-mill discharge, a sluice can often be arranged to provide some preconcentration for the gravity circuit.
